Welcome. Thanks for visiting!

Welcome! I am so glad you are here. I have a lot of crafting fun to share with you here on my blog and I don’t want you to miss a thing! To create an account, receive my blog posts via email, or sign up for my email newsletters, click below :)

They currently have a permanent spot within arm's reach on my counter. I lovey them. I do believe they are my bestest friends at the moment.

In the past, I have had a hard time using BG papers. I buy them. I hoard them. I love them. But when it comes to papers with distress, I simply freeze. I don't know how to use them, as much as I love them. Ask Jana – this is the truth.

But then, I met Mr. 6×6 Paper Pads. These have BG's fab patterns on a smaller scale. And they are so easy to use. They are incredible.

My faves? Here they are…

Bonus: many of them are 20% off at 2peas right now! Woohoo. Click on them to be linked.

Here is a card I did today using some of the BG goodness. It was inspired by THIS card by Renee Camacho.

Too late to enable – I already have a big stack (including 2 of the 3 you featured above). They look so great – I love how there are a range of “plain” distressed papers in colours that co-ordinate with the more patterned designs. And your inspired by card has definitely inpired me…I think I’ll be trying that out this weekend!

I don’t *NEED* any enabling when it comes to Basic Grey 6×6 pads. Oof…I have them stacked right on my table…just loooove them! Urban Prairie is my current fav. I’d almost marry it…if I weren’t already married and if it weren’t an inanimate paper pack…other than that? We’re a match made in heaven! teehee

How dare you enable me at this time of night when I have nothing to do but shop online or go to bed! 😉 Just kidding…I love these pads already too! Yum. The card rocks…has a funky-cool-yet-sweet vibe. Love it!

Bless your heart, I can “share your pain” about the phone calls. I live in another battleground state…North Carolina. Doesn’t it seem like this campaign has gone on forever? I’ve already voted, along with thousands of others here. The turnout is really incredible…but I guess how you feel about it depends on who you voted for!

Hi Jennifer, I read your blog every single day and I love your blog, your writing, your cards and your tutorials – EVERYTHING -to BITS!! I’m a big fan of yours!! 🙂 Love this card! And I’m also a big fan of BG papers – thanks so much for always providing such good information on your blog! 🙂

Have I told you I love you? You and Rene Comacho on one page with my coffee in the morning…it just doesn’t get much better. I have been a huge fan of Rene’s since she had first started posting on Peas all those years ago. I just found her Flickr page and I can’t say THANK YOU enough.

Hi Jennifer! I love the 6×6 paper pads, but have overlooked the BG ones…How? I don’t really know! They are definitely on my list now. I live in OH too but somehow have missed all the political phone calls…Darn! (NOT!) I look forward to watching Grey’s Anatomy every Thursday…I’m not too sure about Cally though.

ME TOO! I have never been able to use BG 12×12, but rock the 6×6 pads. What line/pattern did you use for your card? Eva?
Here’s my most recent lo using 6×6. I think you’ll like it b/c I sewed the pieces together.

You don’t have to sell me on the goodness of the BG 6×6 pads…I think they are AMAZING and I use them ALL THE TIME! Love that the patterns are smaller and so perfectly sized for cards. I have been having so much fun with the Ambrosia line for Halloween. Also, Michael’s has started to carry about 3 or 4 of these pads too. I totally love the Boxer line for manly-man cards.

I know exactly what you mean about BG 12×12 (gorgeous) papers. I also buy them because they are beautiful but I only use my 6×6 for pages, especially since I do more 8.5×11 pages than 12×12. They are also great for minis.
This card (as always) is gorgeous.
TFS
